Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh

Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh

007

Introduction

Today I am reporting on Dynamic Earth, a major visitor attraction in Edinburgh. It is located at foot of the Royal Mile, behind the Scottish Parliament.

Information on the Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh attraction.

Dynamic Earth is a student orientated science centre with emphasis on evolution of the Earth from Big Bang to modern-day. The visitor navigates through a series of experiences where technology is used to illustrate the changes which have occurred over the millennia. There are rooms focusing on geology, oceans, environment, evolution of species and early humans and tropical jungles. Also, a 3D film with artificial snow.

A worthwhile experience for young people and others wishing to learn of  the formation of the Earth and planets together with subsequent evolution of life which has occurred on the Earth.
